Issue is solely lead managed by Sarthi Capital Advisors Pvt Ltd and Bigshare Services Pvt Ltd is the registrar to the issue. Post allotments, shares will be listed on BSE SME platform. The company issued preferential equity to promoters at a price between Rs. 30 and Rs. 50 between August 2006 and March 2010 and then issued bonus in the ratio of 12 for 5.

For the first half of current fiscal ended on 30.09.14, it has earned net profit of Rs. 0.02 crore on a turnover of Rs. 0.83 crore. Based on this if we annualized the earnings, then the asking price is at a P/E of 250 on fully expanded equity post this issue.
Merchant banker has average track record so far.
This at par SME offer is at higher P/E. Due to entry barriers, low preference for SME IPOs by the broking community at large. However, investors with surplus funds may invest at their own discretion for long term, bearing in mind that stock market investments are linked to market risks. The author has no plans to invest in this IPO.
